Williams
teamed
up
with
Jabeur
to
play
doubles
at
the
Eastbourne
International
in
the
past
week,
the
American’s
first
competitive
tennis
since
being
forced
to
retire
from
a
first-round
clash
with
Aliaksandra
Sasnovich
at
Wimbledon
last
year.
Seven-time

queen
Williams
has
not
won
a
grand
slam
since
2017’s
Australian
Open,
and
has
lost
two
finals
at
SW19
during
the
drought,
to
Angelique
Kerber
in
2018
and
Simona
Halep
in
2019.
Third
seed
Jabeur
expects
the
40-year-old
WTA
superstar
to
give
a
positive
account
of
herself
when
she
gets
her
Wimbledon
campaign
under
way
against
Harmony
Tan
on
Tuesday
(June
28).

“I
feel
Serena
was
playing
well
and
moving
well.
I
think
she
can
win
matches
at
Wimbledon,”
Jabeur
said
in
a
BBC
Sport
column.
“We
were
put
in
opposite
sides
of
the
draw
so
that
means
we
couldn’t
play
until
the
final.
That’s
okay
–
I’ll
send
her
to
Iga
Swiatek’s
half
instead
and
leave
the
possibility
of
those
two
great
players
facing
each
other.
“I,
for
sure,
didn’t
want
to
play
her
in
the
first
round.
You
don’t
want
to
play
Serena,
especially
at
Wimbledon.
But
if
it
did
happen
then
it
would
be
amazing
to
play
her
and
that
would
add
another
thing
to
the
dream
list
for
me.”

Jabeur
gets
her
own
campaign
under
way
when
she
faces
Sweden’s
Mirjam
Bjorklund
on
Monday,
and
believes
the
confidence
gained
from
playing
alongside
Williams
could
prove
crucial
in
her
bid
for
a
first
title
at
this
level.
“Playing
with
Serena
Williams
in
the
doubles
at
Eastbourne
last
week
was
an
unbelievable
experience
and
one
which
gives
me
added
confidence
as
I
try
my
best
to
win
my
first
grand
slam
title
at
Wimbledon,”
Jabeur
said.
“If
she
sees
me
as
a
great
player
and
looks
at
me
in
that
way
then
I
can
see
myself
that
way,
too.”

Jabeur
has
never
played
a

match
against
Williams,
but
having
the
chance
to
star
alongside
her
surpassed
that,
allowing
the
Tunisian
to

an
insight

of
the

“The

said
27-year-old
Jabeur.
